I'll try to be a little help. I see the same type of trains you do, but I model what I remember while growing up. There is no reason you can't have a loop around the layout that you can run continuously, make it double track with a cross over on either end. The Loop does not have to be an O shape, it could be a dogbone or anything that type. Place several long sidings along the main with industries there to switch from the sidings which can be done while a pair of long trains can chase themselves around the loop while you are switching. Run the trains at a scale 25 MPH.
You have room for many small business places and even a small GERN facility to receive and ship traffic, just make sure you plan so you can reach everything.
Have fun, and if you need help there are some folks here that will try.
It is a lot friendlier posting if you sign your posts.
Merry Christmas.
